Library Director Courtney Oberhansli shows off their special tree.
If you haven’t yet seen the creative Christmas tree made out of stacked books, the Hawthorne library staff invites you to come in.
Library Director, Courtney Oberhansli, explained that this was a concept of discussion for many years, but this year it came to fruition. With lights, ornaments and a tree topper, it is an amazing tree of interest as one can read the many titles of books that became a holiday tribute.
The Friends of the Library have also set up a table of gifts that can be purchased for as low as $1 with proceeds going to fund more programs and development within the library. From handmade items, to angels and shirts, it’s become a great place for kids to do their Christmas shopping.
If you happen to be someone that enjoys a surprise, there are also mystery bags which are filled with a variety of special things which one can give as a gift.
The Mineral County Library serves as a convenient location to check out movies or books, review recent magazines and periodicals, poke around a community puzzle or pass the time on a computer. Many bargains await a smart shopper year round, while assisting with the future library costs. Everyone is welcome to check out this season’s special at the table inside next to the reception desk.
